Nevada
Nevada Day begins with 35th annual classic
Thirty-five years running. We are excited and thankful, as always, to put on one of our signature races and be part of the Nevada Day weekend. This is a classic road course through the streets of west Carson City. Costumes are HIGHLY encouraged.
This year’s theme is Home Means Nevada so be creative and be part of the fun. An annual event since 1989, the Nevada Day Classic is an 8K run and a 2-mile run/walk that kicks off Nevada Day and sends runners/walkers through the beautiful, historic West Side of Carson City and a finish down the main drag with spectators lining the way.
All runners of all distances will receive a custom wooden medal. The first 300 runners that register are guaranteed a t-shirt. The Nevada Day Classic is organized by the Tahoe Mountain Milers in partnership with Guide Dog for the Blind, Kaia Fit, Delta Gamma, and Lynn Mentzer Timing. All net proceeds will go to Guide Dogs for the Blind.
The breeze is making the parade route a bit chilly so be sure to dress warmly in layers!
